So if you want to replace one variant with the other, you end up doing it constantly, as users seem to constantly add more collapsed buildings in both variants. Also it looks like the 'easier' variant is more accepted. Yes, it is 'ugly' in terms of data quality, but I see no problem so far. Maybe eventually it gets reasonable to unify those tagging variants, when the growing rate sinks significantly, but, in the long term the information will be removed from OSM anyway. We can learn from this and do it better the next time. Regards Micha
